tCfjc Council of tijc ^ocictp of Colonial IMnis in tbc ^tnte 
of ^Tennont, sathered in special meeting, to recall the 
life and character ot Captain Howard Lucius Martin, one 
of its younger members, desires to place this tribute to his 
memory ui)on its records. 

Captain iHartin entered the Ijuiversity of Vermont, 
from the Washington, D. C. High School, in 1S98, but left 
in his junior year to enter the army as Second Lieutenant 
of Coast Artillery, U. S. A. He was ])romoted to First 
Lieutenant in 1907, and was graduated from the Artillery 
School, at Fort Monroe, in 1909. Two years later he was 
retired from active service, with the rank of Captain, for 
disability in line of duty. Having partially recovered his 
health, he resumed his University studies and was grad- 
uated in 1913. He continued his studies for a year at the 
University at Gottingen, Germany, when he was compelled 
to return home on account of the war. After a winter 
spent with his brother in Seattle, Wash., he left for home 
by way of Panama. On reaching New York City, he was 
taken with an acute attack of neiihritis, and died there 
March 21, 191.5. 

Captain JWartin was an exemplary student and officer. 
Faithful and efficient in the discharge of his military duties, 
had he lived he would have reached high rank in his pro- 
fession. Always courteous and considerate In his ways, he 
gained the love and respect of his friends and comrades. 
Our sincere sympathy is extended to his family in their 
and our great loss. 

Captain iWartin became a member of this Society, 
March 11, 1913, in right of descent from Captain Abraham 
Fuller, who was overseer and guardian of the Scatacoke 
Indians in 1773.
